Damage model for simulating cohesive fracture behavior of multi-phase composite materials

Abstract We propose a new damage model for simulating the cohesive fracture behavior of multi-phase composite materials such as concrete. The proposed model can evaluate the damage of the matrix-phase in composite materials using the volume fraction of the matrix within an element comprising the mat...
